Knee pain after weights training

2017-11-12 14:19:30
Hi, My knee got injured 5 months ago, mainly due to weights lifting. I got an X-Ray done and it didn't show anything, so after I proceed to get a MRI where it says that it may be a 'lateral meniscal tear. Minimal knee effusion'. Should I be careful to go back to training with weights and running? Should I follow some sort of treatment? Thanks

• Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold). • Avoid Squatting- • Avoid sitting Cross legged • Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment in which knee is applied warm water followed by the immediate application of the knee with ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
